Welcome to Ocean Waves Quilting Company

I'm Pat Harrison and I keep myself busy being a long-arm quilter, lecturer and workshop teacher, quilt designer, author, and a quilt judge certified by the National Association of Certified Quilt Judges.

Welcome to my website! I hope you find it informational, inspiring, and fun. I have been long-arm quilting since 1999 and have earned numerous regional, national, and international awards—both for my own quilts and those of my customers. My work, including quilt designs and articles, has been featured in books, magazines, on television, and even on a DVD.

In January 2023, I was honored to be a featured quilter in Quiltfolk Issue #25, Rhode Island. Then, in December 2023, I was delighted to discover my quilt, Strippy Scrappy, showcased as the August image in Quiltfolk’s 2024 calendar.

I enjoy every aspect of the quilt-making process, but I have to admit—my favorite part is designing quilting that enhances the beauty of the quilt top. I love watching the transformation as the quilting brings the piece to life, adding depth and dimension.

Lecturing, teaching, and judging allow me to share my knowledge of the entire quilt-making process—from design and construction to the joy of a finished project and even the intricacies of quilt judging. I especially love encouraging quilters of all skill levels to explore new techniques, experiment with color combinations, and push their creative boundaries. After all, quilting should be fun!

Enjoy!
Pat
